A headstrong sassy mortal, Rain is a Mageia living in Tetartos, the Realm of beasts and Immortals. Her nights have been restless, filled with sensual dreams of a big blonde Guardian whose glares indicate he wants nothing to do with her. She is determined to shake off the odd feelings until she finds out her dream lover is responsible for her rescue from a demented Demi-God. In doing so, his touch ignites something rare and coveted. Something that she’s never anticipated… Something he should have told her about. Rain is set on making him explain and then feel the full force of her ire.

After a devastating betrayal resulting in the loss of a close friend a century ago, Dorian refuses to trust or engage with Immortals other than his Guardian family. His years of brutal fighting in the underground Immortal rings are over. He patrols the Realms and slakes his lust with the humans on Earth. Existing, but not living as he used to. He knows the moment he scents Rain that he has found his mate and after touching her he plans to avoid her as long as he can... Until he learns she is in danger. Raging, his beast demands that he go to her, but taking her from their enemy has repercussions he fully plans to escape at all costs.

For Dorian, finding a way out of mating Rain means he could succumb to madness and harm those that mean so much to him… but giving in to his burning urge for her means losing control in a heated mating frenzy sure to ignite them both and link them forever.

Rain is a mortal living in the Tetartos realm and her best friend was mated to a Guardian. After attending the wedding she can't get the big blond Guardian, Dorian out of her head.

Dorian knows he found his mate in Rain but refuses to accept it. Destroyed by a past lover, Dorian doesn't believe he deserves happiness and he absolutely doesn't trust a woman...so how can he tie himself forever to a mortal woman?

Jay writes ignitable situations that sizzle off the pages. The story is EROTIC with a capital E but is also balanced with a strong plot. If you are looking for a page burning erotic read, Denying Ecstasy is the book for you.
